Honestly I felt the it was a good direct. While there wasn't anything monumental I still enjoyed it. The whole mega evolution process was cool and the I will be get that red 3DSXL. The pokebank is a great idea and I don't mind it being a paid service if it's being continually updated.

It was a bit lag filled for me, so just to clarify - in order to transfer pokemon from black/white/v1/v2 you have to transfer them to the bank...which you have to pay for? Little disappointing if that's correct.

Yeah, but Bank is to be compatible with future titles and requires constant matienence, an annual fee is not a bad thing as long as it's not unreasonable. I'm just worried its' going to be a lot :l

Do you guys think that you'll really be using Pokemon Bank for more than a year?
You can transfer all of your Pokemon into XY within a week or less. Unless you guys plan on storing them on the bank forever.

So does this verify that we have to PAY to transfer our old Pokemon up to X/Y? If so, that is absolutely ludicrous. Easily the worst news ever for this generation.

You have to PAY because using such a service for a long time with a good security demands that. At least you make sure nothing wrong happens to it while they are stored (like the system crashes and all your mons say goodbye to you).

does anybody else get the felling this game is gunna a little harder then the rest i mean there giving use 3 starters from day 1

I sure hope so.

I'll probably use it for one year, like you said. I mean.. if I ever want to store them in the bank again, I can always pay the fee again. So if I'm not doing any actual transferring, I don't see why I need it. I'm hoping the Bank / Transfer system includes a legitimacy check..

You know what, I didn't think of it like that. As you said, just hopefully it's a fair price - i'm sure it will be.

Well, I know I'm still excited for X and Y then! Nothing I've really disliked so far. It's all new and exciting. As far as I'm concerned the Mega-Evo's are just another free plus. It's not like they are sacrificing new pokemon or game play for the addition of Mego-evos. Just a cool optional feature

Of course. I mean unless you missed it, Pokemon Bank is to be compatible with all future iterations of the Pokemon Franchise for handheld. So yeah, if there is no way to transfer between gen 6 & 7.

Also, lest you forget, many people don't own "Two" 3DS consoles, so a fee of say $15 a year to allow unlimited transfer, using just one console, is stupendous news, rather than forking out another $170.

Plus what if you want to train a Pokemon in B/W or B2/W2, you're gonna want to transfer it over to X/Y at some point for competitive gameplay or just to see its badass in 3D.

I'll only need it for one day
Let's hope you can pay for a one time year use

Guess XandY had to have a downside at some point
Its okay I guess
But I don't use my credit card a lot, guess I better start

Assuming the Bank doesn't cost too much there are still things I need to know - held items and especially eggs. If I can send these from Black to X and Y (assuming it doesn't care if the items were hacked in) then I'll gladly pay for one year's service.

I have always enjoyed Pokemon because they DIDN'T charge awful mini-transactions for everything like so many other games do. And now they are taking a basic ability we have had for free for YEARS, and charging us a fee for it. How long before they start selling expansion packs or items or event pokemon? This is a step in the WRONG direction.

And I have HUNDREDS of Pokemon on my Black save file. There's no way I'll be able or even want to transfer them all at once. Not saying I'll not be able to do it all within a year, but... who knows? The point is, it's absurd that suddenly I have to pay for something I've been able to do for free for years. I have two 3DS'... I just hope there's a way to transfer with them.
